Chapter Forty-Three: Joining X Call X Isn't Right

"Actually, our survivor base here has been established a long time ago, but for various reasons, it has not ......been expanded," Luo Yuan suddenly introduced the overview of his base.

And the 'reason' she said, the merchant can probably guess some of it.

Just like the enemies he had encountered before, in this post-apocalyptic era, the collapsed society not only brought chaos to society, but also swelled people's desires and ambitions uncontrollably.

The rational and moral concepts that have been almost corroded by modern society have no ability to resist in the face of 'pleasure' without cost.

For food, for the sake of maintaining their high quality of life, and even to ensure their reproductive instincts, some people can do anything.

The actions of these people will naturally cause the strongholds that accept them to suffer corresponding losses, and it is not surprising that some strongholds will even be completely destroyed because of this.

Therefore, no matter how small the scale of the stronghold, the merchants will not look down on them, but will sincerely admire them for their existence to this day.

"So you're pulling people again?" The merchant asked, after he seemed to have experienced the betrayal of his compatriots, maybe even more than once, there were not many 'fools' who were willing to keep 'pulling people in'.

"Yes, after all, we are not the only stronghold in this city......" Luo Yuan smiled helplessly.

Hearing this, the merchant also probably grasped the situation here.

There are multiple strongholds in the city, all of which are human bases established by the survivors of the city.

However, it may be because of the shortage of food or other materials, or the reasons of the people in power themselves, in short, all kinds of open and secret battles have begun between the strongholds.

The tense situation naturally made the various bases start to try to expand their scale, that is, they began to recruit people.

"And what can you give me?" The merchant asked.

Hearing the merchant ask this, Luo Yuan was also happy, "Our stronghold is not far from here, you will know what it looks like when you go, and it will definitely not disappoint you." In terms of combat power, we also have five Abilities on our side, and if you count them, it's six, which is one of the largest number of strongholds here! ”

Luo Yuan proudly introduced her stronghold, if it was most normal survivors, they would definitely be moved by what she said just now.

After all, in this extremely dangerous and potentially life-threatening moment, strong force is more important than anything else, and the survivors who have survived in this apocalyptic world are even more aware of this.

But the merchant was unmoved, and the merchant who was able to protect himself on his own was not at all interested in these tempting words, and his purpose was only one from the beginning.

"How do you make sure the food is available?" The merchant asked straight to the point.

Luo Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Don't worry about this, we have special personnel on our side to be responsible for this." In the suburbs we have enough arable land to feed thousands of people, plus a farm with beef cattle, broiler chickens and pigs, and with the processing equipment we have found, we have plenty of food. ”

"That's good...... the merchant nodded, letting go of the last bit of worry in his heart, "But I still have a companion here, and I don't think you should mind accepting one more person." ”

"Of course!" Luo Yuan agreed without thinking about it, don't say that they are very short of people now, even if it is just a cripple, as long as they can let one ability, and it is also an obvious combat ability, they are willing to let them raise ten more cripples.

"Then I'll pick her up now, shall we meet here later?" The merchant asked, walking in the direction he had been coming and going, and walking faster and faster.

"Yes, it's still here......" Before Luo Yuan's words were finished, he couldn't see the back of the merchant teacher.

"It's really an impatient child...... Luo Yuan sighed indifferently, then his face turned pale, and he whispered to himself: "The speed is very fast, at least the speed of more than forty yards......"

At the same time, her pupils glowed a faint green, which she thought was an illusion if she didn't look closely.

"It seems to be a physical-physical enhancement ability, and the speed just now is not at all something that humans can have." Luo Yuan quickly judged, "But what about the specific strength, we still have to observe further or test it with actual combat." ”

Although he said so, his eyes were still full of shock, even if he only had such a speed, coupled with the muscles and bones that could support this speed and run without damage, no matter how he looked at it, it was a big killer in a personal battle.

"I really hope to see the battle between him and Big Brother Shi Xin, it must be very interesting......" Looking at the distant figure, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Luo Yuan's mouth.

Before she comes back, let's report to the eldest brother about our new partner." Luo Yuan thought so, took out something similar to a walkie-talkie, and whispered something.

………………

Just when Luo Yuan was contacting someone through the walkie-talkie, the businessman who was running on the way back was also talking to Meng Ying through his newly acquired mobile phone.

"How's it going, little teacher?" Meng Ying's clear voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It's going well, sister!" The merchant said with some impatience excited, "You can rest assured that the problem of food is already ready on my side, and even the basic life for the next period of time don't have to worry anymore!" ”

"Really?! That's great! It can be heard that Meng Ying, who heard the news, was also very excited, and even her voice became a little distorted.

"It's just that it might not be just the two of us next...... the merchant said.

"Well, I can fit in!" Meng Ying replied firmly, "I'm not as delicate as you think......

"Well...... "I will try to get a separate place in a better environment!" ”

Although he has no memories of this body, after getting along for a period of time, the merchant still knows that his sister has a small aristocratic problem - cleanliness.

"I'll go back and pick you up now, what's going on over there?" The merchant vaguely heard some subtle sounds, and asked a little heartily.

"......," and after a pause of less than a second, he continued, "It's nothing, just a little excited, just hitting the table." ”

I don't know if it's an illusion, the merchant felt that Meng Ying's voice that had been deliberately lowered became a little quieter, but she didn't think much about it, but continued: "Then you be careful, I'll be back soon." ”

"Don't worry, just take your time, I'll wait for you ......" Meng Ying finished speaking, and hung up the phone.

The merchant listened to the busy sound from the mobile phone, and continued to run forward in confusion for a while, when he suddenly realized something, and his face changed drastically.

"That's not right! The sound is completely wrong! ”

Then he suddenly turned into a cheetah state, and his vigorous posture increased his speed again, turning into phantoms, and rushed towards Meng Ying's hiding place.
